Question

How did I become known as a "rubbish picker '?  

       I never   36    rubbish before.  I didn't care where it went or who cleaned it up.  But two years ago, I started caring about it deeply.  I lived near a forest in Ohio, America.  I can walk there    37    three minutes! I used to love going there to play with my dog.  One day there was   38    much rubbish there that I became very unhappy.  I decided to clean up the forest.  I want to    39    happy going there again. I made my first trip to clean the forest that afternoon.  I took a big black rubbish bag with me. Ten minutes    40    I started to pick up rubbish, my bag was full! From then on, I go to the forest four times a year   41    rubbish, it makes me feel   42   to do something for the environment. After each trip, I look at all the rubbish that I've found.  If   43    of it is recyclable, I keep it.  I will keep picking up 44---people stop dropping it.  I know I am only doing a small bit 45    the earth, but I think it is important.
